Just browsing through the list just transported me back to my MEGA Drive days and so many happy memories which make the presentation of this collection equally enjoyable. That is a serious amount of retro gaming right there and I love that the majority of my favourite games from that time are there including the full Golden Axe series, Streets of Rage but also the original Sonic the Hedgehog and sequel.
Thanks to SEGA, we now get to enjoy 50 of the classic MEGA Drive titles from back in the day and the sheer amount of choice just blew my mind as I read the list of games out and ended up just being a retro overload of smiles for me. I am not a fan of the ‘Mini’ craze with retro console at the moment with what feels like the forced “you must buy it now before it goes” stock issues that push the demand for that mini to silly levels so having a collection of the original games I grew up with on my modern consoles is just perfect for me. It was to me just the coolest console and thanks to the brand new SEGA MEGA Drive Classics collection, I have spent the last few days lost in a nostalgia cloud with zero regrets.
The MEGA Drive or SEGA Genesis in the US, was the first console I bought with my own money thanks to doing many chores around the house and saving up birthday and pocket money and even upgraded mine with the MEGA CD. I was firmly in the SEGA camp after having the Master System console and friends all having the SNES so getting to play one was just a matter of popping to a friend’s house. Many modern gamers could be forgiven for not knowing that the original console war that I remember was between the Nintendo SNES and the SEGA Mega Drive.
